Humans are infamously known as creatures of habit, especially in our dwellings. But sometimes it’s healthy for us to change things up once in a while. An easy way to do that is to try new kinds of art. Get inspired with these cool contemporary pieces that are ideal for interior decorating.
One of the best ways to make an Outer Banks home feel complete is contemporary artwork of an authentic Outer Banks location. The balanced colors of the blue sea and the tan sand are ideal to match a coastal decor palette.
Have you ever seen a set of sculptures like this? This tiny village is filled with personality. From sunshine to hearts, each house has its signature whimsy. A mantle, shelf or office desk would be the perfect perch for them.
Need a pop of color to spice up a boring wall? A beautiful piece like this one will help get you in the right mood. The lively view overlooks a vineyard by the light of the moon. A rose and a bottle of wine with fruit are good hints that it’s going to be a relaxing evening.
This cozy kitty is just right for a classy interior look. It’s a fun complement for the dining room, foyer, living room, and more. It strikes a good balance between warm and cool colors, which means it will take on a whole new look if you like to paint your walls a different color.
Nothing beats the classic simplicity of an Outer Banks beach scene. You can almost smell the salt air and hear the seagulls calling out to each other in this painting! Of course, it’s not the same thing as actually going there. But at least it will help give you beach therapy when you’re stuck at home until next year.
If you enjoy your decor to have a touch of symbolism, this painting of bird eggs with roses is a quality choice. Eggs are commonly associated with new life and a fresh start. Pink roses represent happiness and friendship in the flower language. The soft pastel hues and impressionism-like image add a serene touch for a bedroom or study.
The colors in this painting not only look great with neutrals, it provides an inspirational message, to boot. Why wait for the perfect time and place when you can bloom right where you are? These parking lot trees seem to think that’s a good idea, and it seems to be working for them. This painting would work great in a space where you spend a lot of time.
